Roger Federer Debuts the NikeCourt Zoom Vapor AJ3 at U.S. Open

When Roger Federer walked onto Arthur Ashe Stadium for his first round match against Marinko Matosevic at the US Open, he was debuting his new shoe, the NikeCourt Zoom Vapor AJ3.

Roger collaborated with basketball legend Michael Jordan to develope these shoes — a combination of the Nike Zoom Vapor 9.5 and the Air Jordan 3.

Signature details of the Zoom Vapor 9.5 — Federer’s shoe of choice — include Dynamic Fit technology, which adapts the sneaker to the wearer’s foot, a Nike Zoom unit housed in cushioned and supportive Phylon and a low-profile upper. In the legendary white/cement Air Jordan 3 colorway, the NikeCourt Zoom Vapor AJ3 also features the wide Air Jordan 3 Jumpman-embroidered tongue, signature RF graphics, premium leather, elephant-print panels, and the instantly recognizable Nike Air branding on the heel.

The shoes will be available Aug. 27 at Niketown NY and online at nike.com.
